OPPO has released its 2025 Sustainability Report, showcasing the company’s continued progress in integrating sustainability into its corporate strategy, product development, and day-to-day operations. As its presence expands across more than 90 countries and regions, OPPO remains committed to building a healthier and more sustainable future through its five-pillar sustainability framework, which focuses on Operations and Compliance, Environmental Protection, Employee Well-being, Virtuous Innovation, and Ecosystem Engagement.
Advancing Green Products and Low-Carbon Operations
OPPO integrates green development across every stage of its business, from technological innovation and product research and development to manufacturing operations and supply chain collaboration.
As part of its commitment to green and low-carbon operations, OPPO conducts life cycle assessments (LCAs) for its smartphones to evaluate their environmental impact from raw material sourcing and manufacturing to logistics, product use, and end-of-life recycling. In 2025, the company completed LCAs for 23 smartphone models, helping drive the development of more environmentally responsible and lower-carbon product designs.
OPPO is also expanding its efforts to make product packaging more sustainable by increasing the use of recycled and low-plastic materials. In 2025, recycled wastepaper was incorporated into the packaging of all OPPO products, making up approximately 43% of the materials used for smartphone packaging. Beginning in Europe, the company also introduced paper-plastic alternatives made from plant fibers and recycled waste paper to replace conventional plastics. These eco-friendly materials accounted for around 14% of smartphone packaging materials used in the region during the year.
Beyond product innovation, OPPO continues to reduce carbon emissions throughout its operations and value chain while expanding the use of renewable energy. Over the past three years, the company has consistently lowered emissions from its own operations, with a further 1.22% reduction recorded in 2025. OPPO also completed a comprehensive Scope 3 emissions inventory covering 11 key categories, contributing to a 2.57% year-on-year decline in Scope 3 emissions. In addition, renewable electricity usage across its manufacturing facilities increased by nearly 70%, reinforcing the company’s commitment to long-term carbon reduction.
OPPO Gain Major Advances in Green Practices
Virtuous Innovation for Digital Inclusion and Healthier Lifestyles
Guided by its mission, “Technology for Mankind, Kindness for the World,” OPPO continues to leverage innovation to develop practical technologies that promote digital inclusion and healthier lifestyles. As of the end of 2025, the company’s commitment to innovation is reflected in its growing intellectual property portfolio, which includes more than 118,000 patent applications and 66,000 granted patents.
To promote greater digital inclusion, OPPO has integrated accessibility features into ColorOS, making its smartphones more accessible for users with visual, hearing, and motor impairments. In 2025, the company further enhanced more than 30 core ColorOS applications to improve accessibility across everyday use cases. For users with visual impairments, features such as TalkBack and Image Description convert on-screen content into audio, while tools like Magnification, Color Correction, and Color Inversion improve screen readability. Meanwhile, users with hearing impairments benefit from visual accessibility features, including speech-to-text transcription and flash notifications.
OPPO continues to integrate intelligent technologies across its product portfolio to promote healthier lifestyles. In 2025, the company officially opened the OPPO Fitness Health Laboratory in Binhaiwan, its largest sports and health research facility worldwide. The laboratory focuses on key areas including exercise science, cardiovascular health, sleep health, and lifestyle management. By combining in-house research with collaborations involving leading medical and academic institutions, OPPO is advancing innovations in cognitive health, weight management, blood pressure monitoring, and AI-powered health management, transforming scientific research into practical features that make everyday wellness more personalized, convenient, and proactive.

Driving Cultural Sustainability with Global Partnerships
In 2025, OPPO contributed more than RMB 37 million to public welfare initiatives while continuing to collaborate with partners around the world to advance education, preserve cultural heritage, and strengthen community resilience.
For the second consecutive year, OPPO partnered with the Discovery Channel for the “Culture in a Shot” initiative, using mobile photography to celebrate cultural diversity and foster cross-cultural understanding. Centered on the theme “Celebrate the Moment,” the campaign highlights festivals and traditions from 15 countries while encouraging people around the world to capture and share their own cultural stories, bringing heritage to life through modern photography.

In 2025, OPPO further strengthened its partnership with UNESCO to advance educational equity and digital inclusion. As part of the collaboration, the company donated 1,000 tablets to support information technology education for young people across five countries in Asia and Africa. In Thailand, the devices are being used by teachers and students for computer programming lessons, while in several African countries, where limited access to hardware has long challenged digital learning, the tablets are helping broaden access to technology and create new educational opportunities for young learners.
